It had been a large Agenda and to receive the performance tracker could have been quite daunting for new Members. The Committee had received an extended pre-briefing prior to the meeting and he felt this had helped the meeting to run smoothly which had been useful. In addition to 2 EX.17.07.19 the performance tracker, the Agenda had also included items on the Economic Development and Tourism Strategy; Enviro-Crimes; the Communications Strategy; and Single-Use Plastics. In terms of tourism provision, it was discussed that Officers had been looking at options for the Hat Shop for a while now and previous target dates had slipped; at the meeting, a new date of October 2019 was noted and it was questioned whether there was the resource available to meet that date. Officers had confirmed that Members would be notified shortly of the way forward. The Committee had been pleased to hear that Winchcombe Town Trust, which oversaw the Winchcombe Tourist Information Centre, had been successful in receiving grant funding to develop a new heritage centre. In respect of recycling, this had always been an area of good performance and continued to be so with performance remaining in the top quartile. It was noted by a Member that performance had been hindered by increased contamination and this was something that Officers were working to mitigate.

  • Players and Performances in Early Modern Gloucester, Tewkesbury and Bristol
    Players and Performances in Early Modern Gloucester, Tewkesbury and Bristol SARAH ELIZABETH LOWE A thesis submitted to The University of Gloucestershire in accordance with the requirements to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Education, Humanities and Sciences February 2008 i ABSTRACT This thesis is an analysis of the responses in the early modern period of civic and church authorities to local and visiting groups of players in Gloucester, Tewkesbury and Bristol. It is also an examination of the venues in which these groups performed. Reactions to these groups varied, and this study explores how these, both positive and negative, were affected by economic, legal and cultural factors. The thesis proceeds chronologically, and is thus divided into twenty-year intervals in order to draw the most effective comparisons between the three urban centres over a number of decades. The first period under examination, the 1560s, records the early reaction of the three settlements to the phenomenon of the Elizabethan travelling company. The relationship between the regional authorities and the patrons comes to the fore in the second period, the 1580s, as the dominance of the ambitious Earl of Leicester grew in the region. Legislation decreeing the withdrawal of mayoral control over itinerant troupes at the close of the sixteenth century, the third period, released civic officials from previous obligations and this influenced the level and character of their hospitality towards the ‘noble’ companies. Although evidence is scarce, the records of Gloucester, Tewkesbury and Bristol contain clues to an attitude towards these entertainers during the reign of James I, the final period under scrutiny.

On 8 August 1979, Gloucester City Council asked us to review the City's boundaries, principally on the grounds that these had been overtaken by development and yet had been left unchanged during local government reorganisation. The City Council claimed that the transfer of a number of parishes from the District of Stroud and from the Borough of Tewkesbury would reflect the pattern of community life and be conducive to the effective operation of local government services. We noted from the prior consultations undertaken by the City Council that its request was opposed by Stroud District Council, Tewkesbury Borough Council and all the. parish councils concerned. 2. We considered Gloucester City Council's request, as required by section 48(5) of the Local Government Act 1972. We recalled that in our Report No 1, dealing with our proposals for the creation of new districts in the non- metropolitan counties, we had considered the alternatives of'having five or six districts in Gloucestershire.
